摘要:
In a process of forming MISFETs that have gate insulating films that are mutually different in thickness on the same substrate, the formation of an undesirable natural oxide film at the interface between the semiconductor substrate and the gate insulating film is suppressed. A gate insulating film of MISFETs constituting an internal circuit is comprised of a silicon oxynitride film. Another gate insulating film of MISFETs constituting an I/O circuit is comprised of a laminated silicon oxynitride film and a high dielectric film. A process of forming the two types of gate insulating films on the substrate is continuously carried out in a treatment apparatus of a multi-chamber system. Accordingly, the substrate will not be exposed to air. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the inclusion of undesirable foreign matter and the formation of a natural oxide film at the interface between the substrate and the gate insulating films.

After forming a silicon oxide film 9 on the surface of a region A of a semiconductor substrate 1, a high dielectric constant insulating film 10, a silicon film, a silicon oxide film 14 are successively deposited over the semiconductor substrate 1, and they are patterned to leave the silicon oxide film 14 in regions for forming gate electrodes. Then, after fabricating silicon films 13n and 13p by using the patterned silicon oxide film 14 as a mask, when removing the silicon oxide film 14, etching is performed under the condition where the etching selectivity of the silicon oxide film 14 to the high dielectric constant insulating film 10 becomes large, thereby leaving the high dielectric constant insulating film 10 also to portions below the end of the gate electrodes (13n, 13p). Thus, it is possible to ensure the voltage withstanding thereof and improve the characteristics of MISFET.

摘要:
After silicon oxide film (9) is formed on the surface of a semiconductor substrate (1), the silicon oxide film (9) in a region in which a gate insulation film having a small effective thickness is formed is removed using diluted HF and after that, high dielectric constant insulation film (10) is formed on the semiconductor substrate (1). Consequently, two kinds of gate insulation films, namely, a gate insulation film (12) comprised of stacked film of high dielectric constant insulation film (10) and silicon oxide film (9) and gate insulation film (11) comprised of the high dielectric constant insulation film (10) are formed on the semiconductor substrate (1).
摘要:
A method is used to form a circuit to achieve a high-speed performance and a circuit to attain a high reliability on one and the same substrate, in a semiconductor integrated circuit device containing MIS transistors, in which the gate insulating film is made of a high dielectric constant insulating film. In the method, the high dielectric constant insulating film is removed on the diffusion regions of the MIS transistors in the logic region and I/O region, and suicide layers of a low resistance are formed on the surfaces of the diffusion regions. In the memory region, on the other hand, the silicide layers are not formed on the diffusion regions of the MIS transistors, and the diffusion regions are covered with the high dielectric constant insulating film, thereby preventing damage to the semiconductor substrate during forming of the spacers, silicide layers, and contact holes.
